ABRWF Chapter 384.1

Jiang Nanshu carefully considered her past grievances with Jiang’s mother and realized that she was still a very petty person.

To her, someone she hadn’t invested emotionally was practically a stranger.

She wasn’t close to Jiang’s mother, was she?

Jiang Nanshu felt that these barriers would not disappear with the passage of time.

She grinned and said, “I’m not going. Let her die in peace. Don’t worry about me. She can’t die just because she didn’t see me, can she?”

Jiang Yunchuan choked.

That…was actually absolutely right.

Jiang Nanshu didn’t want to see her, and he didn’t want to force her.

His relationship with Jiang Nanshu was already strained.

Even now, he tacitly avoided mentioning that last phone call in front of her, as it would make him feel guilty, and he was afraid of hurting Jiang Nanshu.

If Jiang Nanshu knew what he was thinking, she would definitely tell him not to overthink it. She simply wanted them to feel guilty toward her. It wasn’t necessarily that Jiang Nanshu loved her family that much.

And being hurt was out of the question.

She had lived a carefree life in her original world for so long and never once thought of them.

Occasionally, she would think of Lu Qingyan.

Because regardless of whether she expressed her feelings or not, his fate would not be bad.

After all, he was the male lead in the book.

How could the author, being a loving mother, bear to kill him off at the end?

At most, his love life would be a bit tumultuous, a little melodramatic, to earn some tears from the readers.

She admired Lu Qingyan for being able to fall for her despite her sesame-filled personality¹A ‘sesame-filled personality’ or ‘sesame-like personality’ (黑芝麻人, hēi zhīma rén) has a specific, nuanced meaning. Similar to how a traditional Chinese tangyuan (glutinous rice ball) or jian dui (sesame ball) looks light/white on the outside but is packed with dark black sesame paste on the inside, this describes a person who appears innocent, sweet, or simple on the surface but is actually quite deep, scheming, or possessive of a ‘dark’ (often intelligent or witty) mind. under those circumstances. He knew her true feelings and still went for it. Well, his courage was commendable.

She felt a brief pang of sympathy for Su Ran because, because of her, the plot was ruined.

With Su Ran’s abilities, she could shine even without a man, yet she still ended up in this situation. Jiang Nanshu didn’t know how to evaluate her. She could only say that everyone must be responsible for their own choices.

Yan Yidan took Jiang Nanshu to Yang Jiashu’s company.

Xu Xi waited directly in his company’s lobby, pacing back and forth.

Yang Jiashu, feeling dizzy from watching her, rubbed his temples: “Hey, ancestor, can you stop pacing around? My eyes hurt.”

Xu Xi, her eyes red, turned and glared at him: “Then why don’t you go upstairs? I’m going to wait here for Jiang Jiang. I haven’t seen her in ages.”

Xu Xi was dressed in a smart white-collar outfit, her hair neatly tied up. Her once round face had thinned considerably, making her features appear more defined, and the outfit added a touch of maturity.

Yang Jiashu wore glasses. Compared to five years ago, he hadn’t changed much. He was still as handsome and clean-cut as ever, dressed casually, and still had a youthful air about him.

He was speechless after being rebuked by Xu Xi, and after a long while, he muttered, “Fine, fine, I’ll wait with you. You can only bully me now. What a sin.”

Xu Xi ignored him, craning her neck toward the door.

Upon finally spotting a familiar figure, she jumped out, her cries echoing through the air: “Woo, woo, my Jiang Jiang, I hate you so much!”

She hugged Jiang Nanshu tightly, and Jiang Nanshu couldn’t push her away even if she wanted to.

She was somewhat amused and exasperated: “How much do you hate me? You’re going to strangle me!”

Xu Xi hurriedly let go of her: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, woo, woo, I really missed you so much! Are you feeling better? Are you okay? Is anything hurting? Let’s go to the hospital for a thorough check-up.”

Xu Xi asked several questions in a row, getting anxious and pacing around in circles.

Seeing that she was so anxious that tears were streaming down her face, Jiang Nanshu raised her hand to wipe away her tears: “Don’t cry, I’m fine, I’m okay.”

She gently hugged her. “I missed you, too, Xi Xi.”
